Tri-fold Sofa Repair Help Needed
Hello, I need some ideas on how to repair the tri-fold sofa in my 2019 2800bh. One of the front panels on the arm is pulling away from the couch. I can see that it was originally held in place with a 'tack strip' that goes right down the center of the panel, but my fear is that if I try to hammer it back in, I will damage the fabric on the outside. I could pull the panel completely off, trim all of the pointy tacks and try to double side tape it back on.
Does anyone know the best way I can reattach it without damaging it?
Thanks in advance!

Upholsters simply use a hammer with a hard rubber head to set tack strips. You can use a rubber mallet.

In this case, I doubt that would work because the inside pressure from the nails could damage the upholstery.
I would recommend removing the part and snipping the nails and using VHB tape to reattach the piece.
PS: Before you do anything, check to see if your furniture is still under warranty. It could have a separate warranty from Thomas Payne (or whoever supplied the couch).David and Peggy
